To welcome in the second semester we held four highly successful Mid-Year Orientation events. These were jointly coordinated by RUSU, SSG and University Events, in another example of the Student Union working productively in conjunction with the University service groups to achieve high quality student focused results. The overall attendance of the MYO events was very strong and the days were a lot of fun. One focus for the quarter and indeed the year has been increased activity at Bundoora with regular Yoga and Tai Chi classes and weekly “starving students” events. We’ve also committed to a Student Rights Officer servicing the campus one day a week, which, anecdotally, has been a great help to the students and staff out there. We haven’t forgotten about the other campuses either; our ‘Pop up pub’ event at Tivoli, held on the last Wednesday of each month, has been a great way of including the business campus and giving them an event to call their own. And of course our regular weekly City campus events have continued to grow in attendance, including ‘Chill & Grill’ and ‘Drinks with Friends’, which are becoming weekly highlights for many students. This quarter has also seen the launch of a new LEAD accredited RUSU volunteer program, kicked off by a training camp with 20 new recruits. This will mean for the last quarter and next year that RUSU has a fresh and enthusiastic team of student volunteers willing to lend a hand to improve student life on campus. RUSU Realfoods is thriving - we’re expanding our volunteer base and the refreshed menu is proving very popular. Lucy Stegley, the café’s coordinator, has been running regular Realfoods cooking demonstrations including appearances from Masterchef winners and celebrity chefs. These events connect the interests of RMIT Health Services, City Fitness and RUSU’s Environment and Welfare departments in a meaningful and delicious way! The Compass Drop-In Centre has continued the ground work of Realfoods in offering students healthy food options by conducting a 4 week trial into the viability of a Library Food Cart. This cart provides healthy organic food and beverage options to students studying after hours in the Library, when the RMIT cafe is closed. While the leading choices for students are still chocolate bars, it’s at least providing some healthy options and saving the students from interrupting their study to find unhealthy off-campus food or drink. In sector-wide news RUSU has welcomed the introduction of the Student Services Amenities Fee, and I look forward to working constructively with the University to ensure the Fee, when implemented, can deliver and bring student services and amenities back to the ‘good old days’ of pre-VSU. Discussion has also commenced regarding effective representation for TAFE students both on-campus and externally, and how that can best be achieved. RUSU has been in talks with its Swinburne and Victoria University counterparts and the National Union of Students, and hopefully something beneficial can come of it. It’s been a very successful year so far and we can’t wait to see what the rest of the year has to offer.

With the academic year of 2013 in full swing, RUSU’s many depart- ments and collectives have come alive all across the campuses. James Michelmore Re-Orientation Week saw students at every campus engage with our student clubs and learn of opportunities outside the classrooms. Thousands of students got involved and we sent off the week with one of our ever-popular evening parties, attended by hundreds of RMIT students. Our student collectives continue to flourish, with the Environ- ment Collective coming in to its stride this quarter - over 150 interested students have signed up so far. Regular meetings of students have been occurring, including trips to our ‘pop up patch’ at Federation Square and planning for future projects and events. In addition, this quarter saw the Environment Department launch its healthy-eating cookbook, ‘Beyond Mi Goreng’, and its popularity has sparked calls for a second edition. Watch this space. This quarter has seen our Student Rights Department focus upon the University’s proposed ‘Fitness For Study’ policies. We continue to express our concerns to the University that issues of mental health and student conduct need to be dealt with in a holistic and supportive manner, rather than with the proposed invasive, punitive measures. After much consulta- tion, the University is now re-drafting these policies and we will continue to work together over the coming months to develop the best possible outcome for students.

Lawrence Harvey, my primary supervisor, has provided invaluable support from the beginning to the end of the PhD process. From the moment I approached him and expressed my interest in undertaking a PhD at SIAL Sound Studios he has fully supported my various applications, submissions, projects, papers and teaching. I have enjoyed the many hours we spent discussing ideas, during which he conveyed moments of illumination that became integral to the unfolding of the PhD process. Charles Anderson has patiently guided me through the steep learning curve of applying design research thinking to a creative arts practice, for which I am grateful.

Stu- dent volunteers completed over 1,000 hours of accredited service this quarter, with over 70 new volunteers joining our James Michelmore team. This quarter also saw RUSU add two new training opportunities and a camp to the volunteer program. Funding has been secured for the continuation and expansion of the volunteer program in 2014, with a focus on improved professional development opportunities. Three RMIT students have also joined the RUSU team at Bundoora to complete placements as part of their studies. Almost 20,000 free lunches were handed out to students this quarter. The addition of free fresh fruit to many of our weekly events has been welcomed by students across the University. Over 8,000 pieces of fruit and hundreds of healthy cookbooks have been given away to students as part of our Healthy Eating Program. A number of new student clubs joined RUSU’s ranks this quarter as almost $25,000 in grants were distributed to support student activities on and off campus. Student rights cases continue to be an area of growth; up over 50% on last quarter, with the number of new cases opened already surpassing last year’s total. The depart- ment continues to focus on concerns about the University’s proposed ‘Fitness For Study’ policies as part of the proposed changes to the Student Conduct Regulation.

With the academic year in full swing, this busy second quarter was characterised by engaging activities and events. Across April, May and June the Student Union ran a variety of large-scale on-campus events James including DJ competitions, cooking Michelmore demonstrations, language workshops, and self-defence classes just to name a few. RUSU has been making an active effort this year to hold more events on campus by making use of our facilities such as the cafeteria spaces, the Queer and Womyn’s Lounges, and the Student Meeting Room in building 8. All these are in addition to our regular events such as free weekly lunches, breakfasts and collective meetings. All our weekly and major events were made possible by over a thousand hours of assistance provided by over one hundred of our trained, dedicated student volunteers. Five of our more experienced volunteers also took on leadership roles in helping organise and deliver our successful new Orientation Camp, attended by fifty first-year RMIT students. Over eighty affiliated student clubs also delivered dozens of regular and special events both on and off campus. Our student clubs continue to be one of the most popular extra-curricular involvements at RMIT, with many enjoying membership numbers in the hundreds. RUSU supports its student clubs through specialised training, resources and funding, and this quarter saw affiliated student clubs receive almost $30,000 in grants to assist their operation and activities.
